Craft Archive Fellowship Virtual Program: Archives in Action
Thursday, February 27, from 5 to 6:30pm (EST)
Join the Center for Craft and Hyperallergic for a free online presentation and roundtable discussion with this year’s Craft Archive Fellowship cohort. Moderated by Lakshmi Rivera Amin, this special event will showcase the fellows’ research into underrepresented craft histories in the US, Guam, Jamaica, India, and the Philippines, as featured on Hyperallergic. The Craft Archive Fellowship Virtual Program is scheduled for Thursday, February 27, from 5 to 6:30pm (EST).
The program will include presentations from the Fellows: alejandro t. acierto, Michelle Amos, Jenna Richards, Shilpi Chandra, Earline Green, Ruth Hallows, Denali Jöel, and Olivia Quintanilla. Their work documents generational and community-shared knowledge of Tsimshian Chilkat weavers, the preservation of Chamorro culture through ancestral objects and craft practices, Jonkonnu masquerade culture, industrial labor in Philippine prisons, and the histories of craftspeople, including the women weavers at Little Loomhouse, Texas enslaved and free Black potters, and Krishna Reddy. Their research and presentations recognize the neglected legacies and contributions of marginalized craftspeople and communities.
The Craft Archive Fellowship Virtual Program will be hosted on Zoom on Thursday, February 27, 5–6:30pm (EST). This virtual event is free; registration is required to attend.
2024 Craft Archive Fellowship
The Craft Archive Fellowship is meant to highlight the various ways an archive can be a resource for unveiling craft histories that have always been present but were ignored or lacked proper documentation. Taking an expansive understanding of what an archive is and can be, fellows can utilize various repositories to find primary source materials like digital or in-person archives, institutional and community-created archives, objects, oral histories, and even sites and places. Through our partnership with the Center for Craft, we’re proud to make this work freely accessible online, helping to decrease barriers to archival research and amplify craft scholarship.
